Behind the show.

Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie write and perform a BBC sketch series built around intricate wordplay, social satire, musical comedy, and playful interruptions of the show itself. Their characters include blustering executives and inept intelligence agents, while mock interviews and piano songs explore the absurd possibilities of language. A 1987 pilot preceded four series broadcast from 1989 to 1995.

A different show.
A whole new rabbit hole.
